  1. 5th Grade Curriculum Night Room 201 ~ Shelley Houle: Writing & Social Studies Room 202 ~ Dianne Hanawalt: Math Room 204 ~ Tiffiny Sleight: Reading Room 205 ~ Caitlan Wagner: Science

  2. Reading • Reader’s Workshop Model • Teacher teaches targeted mini-lessons that meet common core standard • Students self-select “just right” books to read silently • Students practice skills from mini-lessons using their own book or teacher selected passage • Teacher facilitates 1:1 conferencing and small guided groups • Resources • Scott Foresman (CSD adopted anthology) • Storyworks magazine by Scholastic • Leveled books • Literature Studies Homework Expectations: One book report per trimester, read 20 minutes each evening at least 5 times a week.

  3. Writing • Writer’s Workshop Model • Teacher teaches targeted mini-lessons that meet state standards • Students practice writing in their journals • Teacher facilitates 1:1 conferencing and small guided groups • Writing Forms (about one formal essay due each quarter) • Narratives (personal and fiction) • Opinion Writing • Informational Writing

  4. Traditional Spelling vs. Sitton • Traditional • 20 words a week • Weekly words based on spelling patterns • Words are different each week • No emphasis on spelling correctly in writing • Sitton Spelling • Number varies each week • Words based on targeted skills lessons and pulled from grade level priority and core words • Words are cycled…they keep popping up. • Focused emphasis on proofreading skills and improving spelling in content areas (reading, writing, science, etc.) All Sitton and Challenge Spelling words can be practiced at www.spellingcity.com. You can also review your child’s test scores there by clicking on “Records” at the top of the page or App.
